This error may appear for multiple reasons. Some common causes are VPN clients and an unexpected System Reserved Partition size.

Try removing any VPN Clients and attempt the update again.

You might be able to fix this problem by using third-party software to increase the size of the System Reserved partition.

If you have tried both solutions and you still experience Error 0x800F0922 please contact Microsoft Support so that we can further investigate your issue.

    Walter,

    The only solution is to reinstall Windows 8.1 from CD.  I tried everything you described and could not get it to work.  I got MS tech support to "help" and they did the same procedures.  They finally gave up and downloaded and ISO to my machine and did the re-install.

    Thanks. In the end - after much angst - I got into Windows and did an install of 11 updates one by one. They all got through

    Thanks for your offer anyway.

    Yes, this would solve the problem and at the same time give me a clean system again. But it is a lot of work as I have dozens of applications installed on this machine and they all need to be reinstalled and possibly even updated to the latest version.

    I'll wait a bit before I decide but if I am going to reinstall one thing is sure: I'll install Windows 7.

    I am fed up of this Windows 8, KB 2919355 is not the only problem. I can't use some VPN connections because installing a TAP adapter on Win 8.1 fails (and it is still not solved).

    I do not understand why this issue is not being taken more seriously. This error causes the computer to roll back to its previous state, and as a result, every patch that has been released after KB2919355 is never successfully installed. This means that I have been running an unpatched machine for the past two months.

    I can't believe the only solution is to waste an entire afternoon with MS support so that they basically reformat my PC, leaving me to reinstall everything again. I cannot express how frustrated I am at MS right now.
